Command Center & The School Lunch Menu Printable
I’ve showed you my kitchen before (where you can see how this fits into the kitchen), but I’ve never given the details about my Command Center Magnet Board. It has changed over the years and improved in my opinion. How about a little glimpse? Okay, let’s do this! Did you hear the commanding tone? Yeah, totally […]
Bar Stool Redo
My bar stools have bothered me for a while, not because I don’t like the style. I actually looked long and hard for super tall bar stools that had “window framing” in the back. What has bothered me is the shiny dark finish and the microfiber cushions. You can see how they looked in my kitchen […]

How I Clean My Kitchen Sink {A Video!}
Hello there! This weekend I decided to try something fun for you: I made a video of me cleaning my kitchen sink while I hold our five-week old baby. Now that I’ve broken through the terror of figuring out how to take this video, add text, and publish it on my website: I can’t wait […]
Too Many Leftover Containers! & A Little Bit About Organizing Kitchen Cabinets
